Great round up and ode to the modern day Empress, Alysa. 🥰

I wrote a poem early on in my substack about my hair loss. I’m still looking for the right supplement. I’ve tried Viviscal and Nutrafol. Nope. HRTs are not in my future or my past since I had bcancer and was estrogen positive.

It was great to meet you!

Alisa is such a force of good! So glad you spent time with her to mine that wisdom ore of hers. I especially appreciated her emphasis on the importance of questioning the narrative we’ve been fed, and choosing how to write our own. I’d love to hear more about how Alisa’s narrative evolves living with epilepsy. (I have her book Gotham Girl on my kindle queued up to read just as soon as I finish another one of her recommendations.) And p.s thanks for the mention Alisa!

I don’t think anyone will agree with me about hair styles. It’s a personal preference but when I look at TV, pictures and women in general, they all look alike. Long, straight and middle part.

One look does not fit all. If you have long hair please try different styles other than a ponytail or messy bun. Layers, waves, movement, braids the possibilities are endless!

Perms are back, try one or just curl your hair for a change. Bangs are back, even if you try clip ons. Natural hair is back, try it again.

Rant over! As a retired stylist it’s boring and not flattering for everyone.

PS At 50 I had hair to my bra strap.
